My Final Showdown With the Dogman! - Dogman Encounters Episode 559

·1 hr 6 min·5 clips

During a duck hunt, Cam finally kills the Dogman after it telepathically stops him from shooting.

Cam is treated gently from the start. Before the new story gets going, the host puts him back in the history of episodes 528 and 542. Those were the appearances where Cam described what the host calls one of the most traumatic, extreme dogman encounters ever shared on the show. His dog saved him. That hangs over the whole excerpt, because the host says the 100 plus pound white American bulldog laid down his life to keep Cam alive. Cam has more to say now, and the show gives him time to get there. The setup makes clear this is later fallout, not a replay of the old story. Then the hunting scene comes in muddy and simple. Cam talks through the blind, deep mud, shallow water, decoys, and another hunter who walks up with a big square-headed black lab named Sarge. At first, nobody is playing it up. The men talk about sharing the blind and where the other hunter plans to go before shooting light. The place itself starts doing the work. Dead-looking growth, a topped tree trunk, and a spot where a man and a black dog could sit start to feel less ordinary the longer Cam talks. Then the sound shifts. Cam hears a voice and first thinks someone is talking to him from the woods. The words get off-kilter. The call becomes Hey bear, repeated enough that Cam stands up and the men start working through what a bear call would even mean. The host mostly lets the account breathe. He frames Cam's fear without cleaning up the pauses, corrections, and side roads. The excerpt does not resolve. The host says they will be back Monday at 9 p.m. Eastern for part two, with more questions for Cam and room for live chat questions. It closes on a witness note: anyone with a dogman encounter can submit a report, schedule a phone consultation, and decide whether they need help with what happened.
